Thanks for sharing! I’d like to hear how to get high alignment and buy-ins from different parts of a decentralized organization, and your learnings about how to make the collaboration process smoothly and drive change down the road

I really needed this. Was stuck in the one-man-show situation for years managing teams for more than 13 years. This really helps me grow

Grymt! Bra innehåll! These lessons are also interesting to me as an IC, as it provides me with insights how I can tell good and poor management apart.

Both videos are really helpful in demystifying the day-in and day-out work of managing mangers. Thanks for your guidance Marcus. Am curious about navigating failure to deliver, as an example, and failure in general as a manager of managers.

[bennie]

Thank you Marcus! Awesome content. Ideas for future videos - 1) talk more about scaling engineering teams 2) organizations' design/architecture?

[leelangley]

Love these videos, would love to here about managing challenging employees (and managers) a long with managing managers with more experience than you.

[Arianacccosta]

Thank you so much! This is very insightful!

[yuzoezhang]

Thank you for sharing your experience! Could you share your perspective on evaluating manager’s performance? If people under him are not happy and complain, while the manager can generate results.

[magdamiu]

Hello! Awesome videos and very helpful info! Thank you!
Have you considered creating content about how to manage the difficult conversations and how to solve conflicts in a team? Thanks again!

[daviddeng]

The theory is great. I will be even greater with subtitles.

[utuberajeevsaini]

Have a session for performance review also

Just discovered your channel Marcus! Woah - this is great :) I'm not a manager nor manager of managers anymore, but most of what you talk about is still relevant for me as an org coach.
One thing I'm curious about: how is being a manager of managers different in a small org (say up to 3-5 departments) and a large one (15+ departments)? Is it in essence the same job, or would you say it is fundamentally different?
